Chapter 81 - Get Me A Bed, Will You? (2/2)
He quickly averted his gaze ready to call Steward Gu to remove this painting from here before someone saw it.
But something caught his attention. He walked towards the bedside table and glanced at the flower vase. All kinds of rare flowers were settled inside the large crystal vase but the one that caught his attention was a small magenta rose tucked in a lone corner. He pulled out the flower from the vase before looking at it with narrowed eyes.
Nobody was allowed to pluck them from his rose garden. On the corner of the stem of the rose, he noticed something.
He twisted it around before looking at it closely. There was dried blood.
He was reminded of the day when Yu Mei plucked a rose from the garden getting her finger pricked by the thorn in the process. Later, he had taken the rose from her and put it into the flower vase.
Weeks have passed since that incident. He frowned. How could this rose still be fresh?
While he was lost in his thoughts, Yu Mei kicked the door open and stepped inside his room. Her eyes flaring in anger, ”Say, is it difficult for your mom to let me have some peace?”

'You can sleep in the Master bedroom, on my son's bed, above him, below him, or beside him. But if you don't prefer my son, I think the floor in your room should be fine for you.'
Jun Zixuan was speechless. He could not believe his mother wrote something like this but then, he recognized her handwriting pretty well.
He glanced at Yu Mei who was pouting and fuming.
”Well…”
She glanced at him, ”Get me a bed, will you?”
Listening about Shen Lihua's past and her current health condition had invoked a sense of sympathy in her heart but she realized the pitiful one here was her to have gotten this she-devil as her mother-in-law.
He gazed at her for a moment before opening his mouth, ”You can sleep…”
